I tried. Trust me, darling, I really did. You were the 'whole package', as some people would say. But the only thing missing was the most important one. I didn't really love you. You were perfect. But all your perfection could never fit perfectly with my rough edges. But darling, even if we matched, and every part of our personality meshed well with each other, I always won the 'I love you more' game because you let me win But we both know the painful truth I don't love you. Not the way you love me. And I never will— I'm sorry.
It may not hurt me as much as it hurts you, but hell, it hurts.
